Information for detergents and cleaning products

Tolerability and application instructions for detergents and cleaning products

Thank you for taking the time to find out more about the skin compatibility of our tested detergents or cleaning products. At Dermatest, we take great care to confirm that the products we test are safe and skin-friendly. That’s why we test products like laundry detergent carefully to ensure that they are safe for the skin, even when used regularly.

What does the compatibility label mean?
The indication of compatibility refers specifically to the use concentration of the product. This means that our test has checked the skin compatibility of the detergent in the form and concentration in which it is used according to the instructions for use. This includes compliance with the recommended dosage and method of use as indicated on the packaging.

Why is this information important?
Detergents and cleaning products contain various ingredients which, in a certain concentration, ensure optimum cleaning performance. Our tests ensure that these concentrations do not cause skin irritation when used correctly. If you use the detergent in a higher concentration or deviate from the instructions for use, this may affect the compatibility.

Our skin is one of our most important bodily organs. And our natural protective outer shield.

Our skin is just a few millimeters thick. And yet it protects us from a host of dangerous environmental factors. It is a true miracle of nature. Its three thin layers are vital to our survival, and what our skin is capable of is truly staggering: The upper layer (epidermis) protects the body from penetration by pathogens, fungal growth and moisture and, to a certain extent, UV light. Below this is the thicker corium (dermis). This is what makes our skin both flexible and stable at the same time. A multitude of nerve axons, cells for the immune system, blood and lymph vessels and receptors for our sense of touch congregate in the dermis.

The subcutis makes the connection with the underlying structures. It consists of connective and fatty tissue. But this also performs important functions for our body: the fatty tissue serves as a heat insulator and energy store. The sweat and sebum glands, which produce the protective layer for the epidermis, are also found in the subcutaneous tissue. Besides these vital functions, skin has always played another role for us: as the mirror of our soul, it is an essential part of our beauty. We want it to be uniformly smooth, wrinkle-free and pure. Good care and protection from external factors are important in maintaining the beauty and protective functions of our skin. Here at Dermatest® we have made it our mission to test products which come into contact with our skin in order to prevent harm and prove the efficacy of skincare products.
